Hello,
The build failure is not with xfree86 as a separate entity; but, a
failure porting using MacPorts. The error is as follows:
Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/
local/var/macports/build/
_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_xte

The reason I bring it up here is that is looks like something I ran
into when working to get a successful build of xfree86 on the mac a
couple of years ago and I wonder if anyone remembers this was an
error that occurred then (I did not keep all the dumps) and what the
fix was if it did occur. Thank you.
